Ani Tigran Honents church 19 Interior Dormition of the virgin fresco 5591

A scene of the "death of the Virgin Mary". We see Mary stretched on her deathbed, behind that Christ with in his hands the soul of Mary, ready for transport to heaven. Surrounding the scene are mourners (and some saint, I take it, to the utmost right of the scene).

See picture 5576 to see the location of the fresco.
